Braces

Braces, a classic path to a perfect smile, are expertly tailored at BY Orthodontics.

Our Mini Stainless braces reimagine traditional metal braces with sleek, smaller brackets, offering a more aesthetic and discreet option. While maintaining the reliability and effectiveness of classic braces, these mini brackets are designed to be less noticeable and more comfortable. They provide an ideal solution for those who value both the proven results of metal braces and a subtler appearance.

Clear braces use tooth-colored brackets that blend seamlessly with your teeth, offering a virtually invisible treatment option. Ideal for those who prioritize aesthetics, these braces provide the same effective alignment as traditional braces while maintaining a more natural look throughout your treatment. They are made from durable, translucent materials that resist staining and wear, making them a practical and attractive choice for both teens and adults.

TADs, or Temporary Anchorage Devices, are a revolutionary advancement in orthodontic treatment. These small, temporary implants provide a fixed point from which to apply force to move teeth. TADs can reduce treatment time and are especially effective in complex cases, enhancing the precision and effectiveness of your orthodontic care.

Invisalign ^®

Invisalign at BY Orthodontics offers a modern, nearly invisible approach to straightening teeth. Utilizing custom-made, clear aligners, this treatment provides a discreet alternative to traditional braces. Each aligner is precisely engineered to fit your teeth, gradually shifting them into their desired positions. Invisalign is perfect for adults and teens seeking a less noticeable, highly effective orthodontic solution.

The beauty of Invisalign lies in its virtually invisible, removable design, granting you the freedom to eat, brush, and floss without hindrance. This adaptability has made Invisalign a favored option among those seeking minimal disruption to their daily routines while achieving their dream smile. With Invisalign, the journey to a perfect smile is as unobtrusive as it is effective.

TMJ/TMD

Comprehensive TMD Care at BY Orthodontics

Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD) can cause debilitating symptoms such as jaw pain, frequent headaches, difficulty chewing, and other issues that interfere with your daily life. At BY Orthodontics, we specialize in treating TMD with a comprehensive, personalized approach that blends advanced orthodontic care with expertise from trusted specialists.

Led by Dr. Brianna Yang and Dr. Normand Boucher, our team takes the time to understand your unique condition, ensuring that each treatment plan is tailored to your specific needs. We use state-of-the-art Cone Beam CT (CBCT) imaging, which provides detailed 3D views of your jaw joint, allowing us to accurately diagnose and treat TMD with precision.

Whether you’re experiencing pain, discomfort, or difficulty with jaw movement, our goal is to relieve your symptoms, restore function, and enhance your long-term oral health. If you're experiencing TMD symptoms or related concerns, we're here to help!

Our Approach to TMJ/TMD Treatment

Detailed Assessment We begin by conducting a thorough evaluation of your jaw, bite, and overall oral health. This includes using our advanced CBCT technology to obtain 3D images of your jaw joint for a more precise diagnosis.

Customized Treatment Plans Based on your unique condition, we create a comprehensive treatment plan that may include orthodontic care, jaw alignment therapies, and referrals to other specialists when necessary.

Collaborative Care with Specialists For a truly holistic approach, we work with physical therapists, ENT specialists, and oral surgeons to address all aspects of your TMD and ensure the best possible outcome.

Services We Offer for TMD Patients:

At BY Orthodontics, we take a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to diagnosing and treating Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD). Dr. Brianna Yang and Dr. Normand Boucher combines advanced technology with collaborative care to address the root causes of your symptoms and support long-term relief.

Comprehensive TMD Evaluations: We perform detailed assessments of your jaw joint using advanced Cone Beam CT (CBCT) imaging. This 3D technology provides high-resolution views of the TMJ and surrounding structures, allowing for accurate diagnosis and informed treatment planning.

Customized Splint Therapy: Our custom-made bite splints are designed to promote jaw relaxation, reduce clenching or grinding, and redistribute pressure on the TMJ. These appliances are tailored to your unique anatomy and serve as an effective, non-invasive option for managing TMD symptoms.

Orthodontic Treatment for TMD Relief: Bite misalignment and jaw imbalance often contribute to TMD. Through precise orthodontic treatment, we can correct these issues to reduce joint stress, relieve pain, and restore healthy jaw function.

Botox Therapy for TMJ Disorders: For patients with muscle-related TMD, Botox injections may be used to relax overactive jaw muscles, ease tension, and reduce chronic pain. This minimally invasive treatment can offer effective relief as part of a broader care strategy.

Collaborative Care with Trusted Specialists: TMD treatment often benefits from a team-based approach. We coordinate with experienced professionals—including physical therapists, ENTs, and oral surgeons—to ensure every aspect of your condition is addressed.

AIRWAY/SLEEP APNEA

Orthodontics with a Focus on Airway Health

At BY Orthodontics, we prioritize not only the aesthetics and function of your smile but also your airway health. Dr. Brianna Yang and Dr. Normand Boucher use advanced Cone Beam CT (CBCT) imaging to assess your airway in 3D, identifying potential obstructions or issues that may affect breathing, sleep, and overall wellness.

We offer airway-friendly treatments, such as palatal expansion, to improve airflow and support long-term health. If needed, we collaborate with specialists like ENTs and sleep medicine doctors to ensure personalized care.

Breathe better with a healthy foundation— if you or your child experiences mouth breathing, snoring, poor sleep, or has a history of narrow jaw structure, schedule a consultation with Dr. Yang or Dr. Boucher. We’re here to provide expert orthodontic care that puts your airway health first.

The Connection Between Oral Structure and Airway Health

The size and shape of your jaws, palate, and dental arches directly impact the size of your airway. A narrow upper jaw or recessed lower jaw can constrict the airway, making breathing more difficult—especially during sleep. These structural issues can contribute to conditions such as sleep apnea, poor sleep quality, chronic fatigue, and even behavioral challenges in children. At BY Orthodontics, we prioritize airway health in every orthodontic evaluation, for both children and adults, ensuring that your treatment plan supports not just a healthy smile, but also better breathing and overall wellness.

Airway-Focused Treatment Options

Palatal Expansion for Children and Adults: A narrow palate can restrict nasal airflow. Palatal expanders gently widen the upper jaw, improving nasal breathing and creating more room for proper tooth alignment. While expansion is most commonly done in children, adults can also benefit from carefully planned expansion treatments.

CBCT-Based Airway Analysis: Our use of CBCT imaging provides a more complete view of the airway space, allowing for more accurate diagnosis and better-informed treatment planning.

Collaborative, Multi-Specialist Care: When needed, we work closely with ENTs, myofunctional therapists, sleep specialists, and other medical professionals to ensure every patient receives fully integrated care that addresses both orthodontic and airway-related concerns.

Treatment That Supports Long-Term Health: By focusing on airway-friendly treatments—rather than simply straightening teeth—we help support better breathing, healthier sleep, and improved long-term outcomes.
